There are 1500+ registered to take part in 2017 Quilt of Valor National Sew Day. I can’t begin to explain how I am looking forward to this day. A day where we are gathered together to work for a common purpose of remembering and honoring our Veterans. A day where we laugh, snack, play, make new friends and reconnect with old. A day where we dedicate ourselves to our craft. A day where we can put aside everything but for the common goal of saying ‘Thank You’!

As you all spend your day in friendship, fellowship, and frenzied activity to finish just one more; one more stitch, one more block, one more quilt, I will have the honor of saying ‘Thank You’ to those of you who are participating.

I’m really excited about some of the door prizes that will be given away throughout the day. There are quilting books, patriotic panels, fat quarters, beautiful note cards, and a Grand Prize alternative. We announced that the 2017 Grand Prize would be a free admission to the QOVF Annual Conference in Colorado Springs, an exclusive gift bag, special events and more. If you are the Grand Prize winner I hope you are able to join us in Colorado Springs. However, If you are unable to travel we are excited to announce that we have an alternative prize; a brand new Viking sewing machine.

So if your group hasn’t registered or you haven’t registered as an individual sewing at home do it now! I would love to have the opportunity to meet you over the phone!

  1. I'm looking forward to Saturday, not for the prizes, but, for the other reasons.
